AIMS

The aims of this conference are to develop and continue discussions on STEAM Education Research and to introduce new ways to teach and train graduate students in STEAM fields. The presentations at the conference will enable us to learn about the work of colleagues locally and internationally to be able to develop collaborations in STEAM related projects. This time we would like to further explore the role of Arts in STEAM education and further our knowledge in a wide range of STEAM fields and beyond. Thus, we hope that not only researchers, but also artists, teachers, teaching specialists and anyone wish to contribute to the topics will join us.
